Assessments
The promised outcome was to require a CBSI implementation plan within 180 days of enactment. The evidence shows Kaine introduced or materially advanced S.820 in 2025 with the relevant requirement, but the bill was only read twice and referred to the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, with no enactment or other completed federal mandate. Because there was a serious legislative attempt but the promised requirement has not become law or otherwise been delivered, this is best scored as never with an effort badge.
